Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of untreatable vision loss. In advanced cases, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell loss occurs alongside photoreceptor and choriocapillaris degeneration. We hypothesized that an RPE-patc...
Osteoinduction is an important feature of the next generation of bone repair materials. But the key structural factors and parameters of osteoinductive scaffolds are not yet clarified. This study leverages the efficiency of high-throughput screening ...
Blending poly (lactic acid) (PLA) with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) improves the strength and hydrophilicity of nanofibers, making them suitable for biomedical applications like wound dressings. This study explores how electrospinning parameters-applie...
Tissue regeneration after a wound occurs through three main overlapping and interrelated stages namely inflammatory, proliferative, and remodelling phases, respectively. The inflammatory phase is key for successful tissue reconstruction and triggers ...

This study explores the development and optimization of a novel biomaterial scaffold for tissue engineering, composed of Tamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP), Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), Chitosan (CS), and Sodium alginate (ALG). Scaffold prop...
Infection is the most prevalent complication of fractures, particularly in open fractures, and often leads to severe consequences. The emergence of bacterial resistance has significantly exacerbated the burden of infection in clinical practice, makin...
Regeneration of oral soft tissue defects, including mucogingival defects associated with the recession or loss of gingival and/or mucosal tissues around teeth and implants, is crucial for restoring oral tissue form, function, and health. This study p...
The myotendinous junction (MTJ) facilitates force transmission between muscle and tendon to produce joint movement. The complex microarchitecture and regional mechanical heterogeneity of the myotendinous junction pose major challenges in creating thi...
Freeze casting, a manufacturing technique widely applied in biomedical fields for fabricating biomaterial scaffolds, poses challenges for predicting directional solidification due to its highly nonlinear behavior and complex interplay of process para...
